Now in paperback! Overcome perfectionism and self-doubt by unapologetically embracing your fully awesome self—flaws and all—with the co-founder of Mindvalley, a global school delivering transformational education for all ages.

Perfectionism is the one thing that often stands between us and lasting, deep happiness and feelings of peace and fulfillment.

How can we simultaneously live as ourselves without ourselves?

By sharing revelatory personal anecdotes and thoughtful reflection prompts, Kristina Mänd-Lakhiani, co-founder of the global transformational school Mindvalley, guides you toward:

• Finding your own truth despite the external and internal critics
• Transforming ideas of the Perfect You into the embodiment of the Real You
• Embracing a life where no one needs fixing

Only by finding your way back to yourself and understanding who you really are—by accepting your dents and scratches, your quirky uniqueness, and your flaws—will you thrive in being unapologetically you, most flawesomely.

Starcodes: Navigate Your Chart with Choice-Based Astrology

An exploration of the unique, empowering concept of choice-based astrology: your destiny is not yet decided and, with a better understanding of your chart, you can make the best choices to live your highest life.

Astrology does not define the future; rather, it describes a pattern. You, and only you, choose how to respond.

Here, astrologer Heather Roan Robbins teaches us to use the spectrum of each astrological concept and symbol—from its challenge through its practical application to its divine gift to give you choice. This same empowering approach can be applied to how you read your natal chart. It’s tempting to read descriptions of your individual chart and look for problems and difficult transits, rather than seeing the opportunities for healing and growth.

That’s where Starcodes steps in: it’s an astrological invitation to read your chart in a whole new way, explaining the signs as filters on the world’s stage lighting. The personality of each planet shines through the lens of a sign and takes on its tint and hue. The planetary personalities interact with each other in clear geometric patterns—or aspects—and so argue, support, challenge or energize one another. Once you understand your unique map—your planetary pattern—you may move through your life with confidence.

A Touch of Salt

Mahatma Gandhi to Dandi, and become a part of the historic violation of the Salt Act in British India. This is, of course, unrecorded by history. He was an Agariya, one of the salt-harvesters in the Rann of Kutch. Today, the Agariyas working in the salt pans have no water, homes or schools for their children. They are being squeezed out by the law that has identified the entire Rann as reserved forest for wild asses. Tribhuban’s grandson Azad has no choice but to take up the fight for salt against the establishment once more, this time in an independent India.
A Touch of Salt is the story of Tribhuban and Azad, of Mohandas and Kasturba, of Malati and Vishnuram, of the multitude of Agariyas, countless lives lived, lost, and buried in salt and sand.

Thank You, Gandhi

When a bureaucrat who witnessed the Bhopal gas tragedy firsthand passes away from Covid, he leaves behind his oldest friend and an unfinished book.

An impassioned lament, a nostalgic tribute and a poignant ode to boyhood, Thank You, Gandhi is a unique blend of fiction and nonfiction, past and present, memoir and social commentary, and ultimately an uncategorizable book that pays homage to the enduring legacy of the father of our nation. At its epicentre sits the profound bond between K and Munna whose lives are inextricably intertwined with India’s tumultuous history and Gandhi’s teachings.

The ingenious metafictional device of the book inside the book becomes a timely conversation between two nations, one of the past and one of the present. When K pieces together Munna’s manuscript, feeling honour-bound to complete it, he discovers his late comrade all over again. Even as he grapples with India’s complex political landscape and the challenges of upholding Gandhi’s ideals in a rapidly changing world, the bifocal lenses of Munna’s experiences and his own introspections serve as a turbulent reckoning.

A novel unlike any other, Thank You, Gandhi takes readers into a liminal space beyond the confines of genre and invites them to confront the difficult questions of where we are and how we got here through a layered and rare exploration of male camaraderie.

Rama

The Ramayana is thousands of years old, yet it is filled with life lessons that benefit us even today. It teaches courage and fortitude to handle problems that are the inevitable result of birth. Reading it instils values like leadership, forbearance, loyalty, respect, equality, forgiveness, humility, and most of all, selflessness. Rama exemplifies eternally relevant dharma, demonstrating the path to enlightenment through conscious selfless action. He illustrates how one can attain liberation from suffering not by renunciation but by engaging fully in life, yet rising above it, through the purity of our choices.

This retelling of Valmiki’s Ramayana is a compelling read. It brings alive the poet’s ancient Sanskrit epic in lucid English without diluting the original intent. Making this edition truly special are the additional chapters on Vedic life, Rama’s descendants and the story of Valmiki.

Read this book and be amazed at the profound thinking of our ancestors. The values we cherish today—democracy, liberty, equality and justice—are at the core of this story. Rama embodies righteousness that never loses relevance, making him a man of dharma and a role model in every age.
